Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u>Given :-</u></h2>

(√3-√2)/(√3+√2)

<h2><u>To find :-</u></h2>

Rationalised form = ?

<h2><u>Solution:-</u></h2>

Given that

(√3-√2)/(√3+√2)

The denominator = √3+√2

The Rationalising factor of √3+√2 is √3-√2

On Rationalising the denominator then

=> [(√3-√2)/(√3+√2)]×[(√3-√2)/(√3-√2)]

=> [(√3-√2)(√3-√2)]×[(√3+√2)(√3-√2)]

=> (√3-√2)²/[(√3+√2)(√3-√2)]

=> (√3-√2)²/[(√3)²-(√2)²]

Since (a+b)(a-b) = a²-b²

Where , a = √3 and b = √2

=> (√3-√2)²/(3-2)

=> (√3-√2)²/1

=> (√3-√2)²

=> (√3)²-2(√3)(√2)+(√2)²

Since , (a-b)² = a²-2ab+b²

Where , a = √3 and b = √2

=> 3-2√6+2

=> 5-2√6

Hence, the denominator is rationalised.

<h2><u>Answer</u><u>:</u></h2>

Rationalised form of (√3-√2)/(√3+√2) is 5 - 2√6.

<h2><u>U</u><u>sed </u><u>formulae:</u><u>-</u></h2>
  • (a+b)(a-b) = a²-b²
  • (a-b)² = a²-2ab+b²
  • The Rationalising factor of √3+√2 is √3-√2

When 0.5(20x – 50y + 36) – 0.25(–100x + 40y – 12) is simplified, what is the resulting expression?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

<h2>35x - 35y + 21</h2>

solution,

0.5(20x - 50y + 36) - 0.25( - 100x + 40y - 12) \\  = 10x - 25y + 18  + 25x - 10y + 3 \\

Combine the like terms:

= 10x + 25x - 25y - 10y + 18 + 3 \\

Simplify:

35x - 35y + 21

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...

Elena packed 48 cubes into this box.Each cube has edges that are 1 centimeter.How many layers of cubes did Elena make
solniwko [45]
Elena packed 48 cubes.
Each cube has an edge of 1 centimeter.
The number of layers that Elena can make depends on how each layer is arranged and depends on how many cubes are there in a layer.
Assume that each layer has  only 1 cube, then there are 48 layers.
